From patterns to predictions: a framework for the spatial epidemiology of wildlife diseases

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Wildlife diseases pose a significant threat to biodiversity conservation, public health, and livestock. Spatial epidemiology provides a robust framework to understand disease dynamics and guide policy and management. However, the rapid proliferation of spatial methods has largely occurred in isolation across disciplines, leaving the field without a ...

Evaluating the boundaries of marine biogeographic regions of the Southwestern Atlantic using halacarid mites (Halacaridae), meiobenthic organisms with a low dispersal potential

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2019
Aim We evaluated traditional biogeographic boundaries of coastal marine regions in Southwestern Atlantic using DNA sequence data from common, rocky‐shore inhabiting, marine mites of the genera Agauopsis and Rhombognathus, family Halacaridae.

A new species of freshwater flatworm (Platyhelminthes, Tricladida, Dendrocoelidae) inhabiting a chemoautotrophic groundwater ecosystem in Romania

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Taxonomy, 2017
We report the description of a new species of freshwater flatworm of the genus Dendrocoelum inhabiting the chemoautotrophic ecosystem of Movile Cave as well as several sulfidic wells in the nearby town of Mangalia, thus representing the first planarian ...

Shallow-Water Coral Communities Support the Separation of Marine Ecoregions on the West-Central Florida Gulf Coast

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Florida’s west coast is a 170,000 km2 bedrock shelf (west Florida shelf, WFS) comprised of north-south discontinuous carbonate outcroppings extending more than 200 km from the intertidal zone to a depth of 200 m.

Thermal niche breadth shapes regional elevational range sizes of tropical‐like mountain stream insects: evidence for Janzen's tropical mountain passes hypothesis

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
The core of Janzen's tropical mountain passes hypothesis is that relatively stable annual temperature variation limits species' thermal tolerances breadth, which, in combination with steep elevational temperature gradients, constrains the elevational distributions of these species. In addition to thermal niche breadth, elevational ranges were shaped by

Soil‐derived, gut‐dominant generalist bacteria shape the fitness of folivorous larvae

open access: yesiMeta, EarlyView.
Whether Lepidoptera harbor a conserved core gut microbiome has long remained contentious. Through large‐scale microbiome profiling of folivorous larvae, their host plants, and associated soils across three climatically distinct regions of China, we identify two soil‐derived generalist bacteria, Ralstonia insidiosa and Delftia sp., that colonize 97.92 ...

Taxa‐dependent temporal trends in the abundance and size of sea urchins in subtropical eastern Australia

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Subtropical reefs host a dynamic mix of tropical, subtropical, and temperate species that is changing due to shifts in the abundance and distribution of species in response to ocean warming.

Armillaria Root-Rot Pathogens: Species Boundaries and Global Distribution

open access: yesPathogens, 2018
This review considers current knowledge surrounding species boundaries of the Armillaria root-rot pathogens and their distribution. In addition, a phylogenetic tree using translation elongation factor subunit 1-alpha (tef-1α) from isolates across ...

The Anatolian diagonal revisited: Testing the ecological basis of a biogeographic boundary

open access: yesZoology in the Middle East, 2016
The Asian part of Turkey, i.e. Anatolia, is the region where three of the world’s 35 biodiversity hotspots meet, and interact: the Caucasus, Irano-Anatolian, and Mediterranean basin hotspots.
